The theoretical physicist and leading science communicator explains how physics can shed light on life's biggest quandaries

Existential Physics Zusammenfassung

Existential Physics: A Scientist's Guide to Life's Biggest Questions Sabine Hossenfelder

Do we have free will? Is the universe compatible with God? Do we live in a computer simulation? Does the universe think?

Physicists are great at complicated research, but they are less good at telling us why it matters. In this entertaining and groundbreaking book, theoretical physicist Sabine Hossenfelder breaks down why we should care. Drawing on the latest research in quantum mechanics, black holes, string theory and particle physics, Existential Physics explains what modern physics can tell us about the big questions.

Filled with counterintuitive insights and including interviews with other leading scientists, this clear and yet profound book will reshape your understanding of science and the limits of what we can know.

Existential Physics Bewertungen

Hossenfelder may popularise science but she doesn't dumb it down... she stands between us and total incomprehension. * Daily Mail *

Hossenfelder is a unique writing talent and a unique science popularizer. You will come away from this book enriched, and will think about the world differently than you did before.

* Lawrence Krauss, theoretical physicist and bestselling author *
